      What is the best way to manage the page after a form?

      For example I have a page search.php  with a form that post to result.php containing the output, how handle the result page?

      Is better to no index result? or use a canonical to search.php?

      Tks

        I typically noindex these. You would only use a canonical if the two pages have identical content
